There’s at least one by me I’ve gone to occasionally because who wouldn’t want to go to a bake sale with some grandmas baklavas and Greek meat pies. What I find interesting is that the heavily Catholic Slavic peoples (poles/hungarians/ Czech) all venerate Saints Cyril and Methodius who were Greek Orthodox because they brought the precursor language for Cyrillic. Makes we wonder how much longer they’ll put up with a rogue Catholic Church.
Hopefully they'll put up with it shorter than the Catholics themselves.
Michael Knowles having to run apologetics for a Communist pope is embarrassing. At least with Protestants you can go: "Obviously the pope is a retarded communist."
My go to whenever I heard Catholics complain about the Pope doing anything is "Dont cry at me. My ancestors shot their way out of having to care what he thinks."
On that note though, you are seeing (at least in the US) signs that the religious aspect is not actually going away but is changing. Because studies show that the average American still practices and believes what would be seen as Christian ideals, but their trust in churches are declining. Which implies that we may see new Protestant doctrines pop up to fill the void that this data implies or people go to existing ones (like you said, Great Awakening style).
I basically said this to Ahaus just yesterday.
We were also considering the idea of the next Great Awakening will include a large surge in the Greek Orthodox church, rather than the Western Catholic church.
